Cool Idea: Frankensteined China, Two Ways Belarusian artist Vika Mitrichenka makes gorgeous tea sets by casting broken pieces of china together, which were picked up by Dutch Design Shop Frozen Fountain, as well as the Stedelijk Museum. At $5,742 for a limited edition set of serving tray, tea pot, dish, sugar and cream bowls, and cup and saucer, you'd better have a pretty tame tea party if you want to use them, but I think it's best to think of Mitrichenka's work as fine art sculptures. To hear who else frankensteins china, . One of my Designer Spotlights, Jason Miller (of antler chandelier fame), designed a collection called "Seconds," teapots, teacups and saucers, and dinner and dessert plates which look to be mismatched pieces of china glued to china, but are actually produced by Areaware.

Nice and New: Areaware Magno Wooden Radio Cute, and eco, too. The Areaware Magno Wooden Radio ($330), designed by Singgih Kartono, is made from sustainably harvested woods, and combines the techiness of an mp3 player with the ageless quality and appeal of wood. If this had an alarm, I'd be all about it.
